Direct-to Shortcuts
Shortcuts
Shortcuts are available when using the
direct-to
key, allowing you to bypass the use of the
small
and
large right
knobs to enter the waypoint’s identifier. A
direct-to can be performed from any page displaying
a single waypoint identifier (such as the WPT pages
for airports and navaids) by simply pressing
direct-to
and
ENT
. For pages that display a list of waypoints
(e.g., the Nearest Airport Page), you must highlight the
desired waypoint with the cursor before pressing the
direct-to
key.
When a single waypoint is displayed on-
screen, select it as your direct-to waypoint
by pressing direct-to. When a list of way-
points is displayed, press the small right
knob to display a cursor, highlight the
desired waypoint, then press direct-to.
To select an on-screen waypoint as a direct-to
waypoint:
1. If a single airport, navaid or user waypoint is
displayed on-screen, press
direct-to
, then press
ENT
twice.
2. If a list of waypoints is displayed on-screen, press
the
small right
knob to activate the cursor, turn
the
large right
knob to highlight the desired
waypoint, then press
direct-to
followed by
ENT
twice.
Direct-to waypoints may also be selected from
the Map Page by panning to the desired location and
pressing
direct-to
and
ENT
(twice). If no airport,
navaid or user waypoint exists at the desired location,
a waypoint named “+MAP” is automatically created at
the location of the panning pointer.
To select a direct-to waypoint from the map page:
1. From the Map Page, press the
small right
knob to display a panning pointer.
2. Turn the
small
and
large right
knobs to place
the panning pointer at the desired location.
Use the panning pointer to select your way-
point directly from the map.
3. If the panning pointer is placed on an existing
airport, navaid or user waypoint, the waypoint
name is highlighted. Press
direct-to
and
ENT
twice to navigate to the waypoint.
4. If the panning pointer is placed on an open
location, press
direct-to
and
ENT
twice to
create a “+MAP” waypoint and navigate to
it.
